Dear fifteen year old Claire,
He's not going to date you- it's okay to start obsessively stalking somebody else's Facebook. It's nothing against you. Sometimes people just aren't supposed to date. Okay? Don't worry. I know high school sucks and I know how miserable you are at school. And I'll be honest, it still sucks after freshman year. But not nearly as much. You'll find your friends. Not a huge crowd, but the right mix of people who understand you and get you. Just wait until college. You'll have the absolute time of your life and it makes it all worth it. You're not gonna have highlighted blonde hair and braces for ever, don't be nervous. And FYI, you'll learn this soon enough, Miley Cyrus isn't gonna be your role model and you really, really should have put more thought into choosing a confirmation name. However, it is always a great story to share. Life gets so much better when you're not forced to play volleyball anymore. You're going to have moments of regret and second guessing. Especially when the team wins state your junior and senior year. Just be proud of yourself that you followed your heart. Nana will always give you a hard time for quitting volleyball and not joining the choir, but over time you'll learn to laugh and make jokes of it.
In short I just want to say: stick true to who you are, believe in yourself, and never stop laughing. These three magic steps will bring you more happiness than you can imagine.
xoxo,
Gossip Girl
